Tww- anyone want a symptom spotting buddy? :)

Congrats Birdie, wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months. Xxx

I went for a run today, as I am not back running that long I hadn't gone in a few days when I started getting the really sore nipples in case I was pregnant. Anyway I started my run and needed to pee and when I wiped there was a tiny bit of brown discharge. I have had nothing since. My app says not due af until Sunday but I think it's due before that.

Hi all
can I join too - Im cd 23 - been getting period cramps for the last couple of days and very achy in my leg and back but no nausea or sore boobs so think its the dreaded af although I don't usually get cramping this soon - it usually happens right before my period is due like a few days so this is a bit unusual for me to arrive this early but am going ott with the symptom spotting!
Sorry for tmi but slight feeling of thinking af is coming but running to the loo and nothing is there! Am driving myself crazy with all this!

Has anyone else had period like cramps (and no other symptoms) and then gone on to get a bfp? Am ever hopeful that this will be my lucky month!

congrats birdie thats great - here's hoping this is the start of all our bfps :)

Hi seahawk your on the same timings as me, my AF is due Friday/Saturday and I'm thinking of testing hopefully Friday if no obvious signs it's on it's way.

FXd Birdie has started a run of bfps for us who's next to test?

Brilliant news birdie! So pleased for you x

Hi can I join? It's my first month of trying properly, although we only DTD once. One app said it was in my fertile period but one didn't. Ovulation pains started the day after but continued for almost a week. I'm currently CD21. Since my ovulation week I've had really sore boobs which I think is unusual as it's usually a few days before my period. I've also had weird lower abdominal cramps the last couple of days and a watery feeling down below. I promised I wouldn't symptom spot but it's impossible!

Congrats birdie!!!

Ps Congrats Birdie!

Can I join in? On holiday and without work distractions symptom spotting is out of control!! I've been feeling pretty nauseous on and off last 2 days - I know it's v early but I'm the worlds biggest piker, everything goes to my stomach and am off booze which never happens! AF due sat and I am planning to test on thurs with a first response. So so tempted to test tomorrow but only bought 2 tests with me so don't want to get a bfn and then have only one more test for 3 days holiday. We dtd lots over FW so am hopeful but need talking down from a testing ledge!

Congratulations birdie!! X

Wow super clear BFP Birdie. Congrats!!! Do you know your EDD?

Wait till af due I think if you can. If you are pg you'll know then and it'll be more likely to show up the longer you wait? I don't know. Not sure what to do myself either.

My when to test day has always been the same as my af due day on Ovia before so I don't have a clue why it's gone wonky tbh.

Anne I'm not sure when to test - Ovia says in 9 days, but that would be 3 days before it says AF is due, so wouldn't that be too soon? Or does it mean that's the very earliest you could test, subject to levels of HCG present if it is a positive? I'm torn between testing early as am VERY impatient, and wasting money / getting totally obsessed!

Hello party, sorry you're feeling so crap. I can totally sympathise on the boobs, mine are getting in the way of having my arms by my sides, it's incredibly annoying and uncomfortable.

Do you know when you can test? Certainly sounds like possible cause for optimism based on your symptoms, lots of people say they knew very very early on.

olive I've had a 24 day cycle the last couple of months so that might be why. I think the weird thing is that it's predicting my cycle to be longer than it should, based on the last few.

Oh and quick question about Ovia - mine says I can test in 9 days, but that's 3 days before AF due, so seems too soon??

Can I join you? I'm going nuts here, symptom spotting.
I think I ovulated on 17 June. DTD on 16, 18 and 19. I don't know if I have been reading the ovulation test properly though because I didn't get a really dark line. It went from non-existent, to light, to darker, and then light again and non-existent again. So I assumed the darkest line was a positive.
On the 17th (ovulation day) I had tender breasts (but not sore nipples). On the 18th these became really sore nipples, but breasts no longer tender other than the nipples. This has been going on for 4 days now - they are REALLY sore! Also nausea for the first one or two hours I'm awake. And absolutely exhausted, like falling asleep at 8pm! I'm told it's too early for these to be symptoms but I just feel so weird!

I'm afraid I'm out ad arrived with a vengeance. FX for the rest of you xxx

Oh that sounds frustrating birdie, hopefully it doesn't show up at all this month!

Hmm anne interesting that you can test on cd24, yesterday was my cd24 and I got a bfn. Was telling myself it was too early but perhaps not and I'm just out.

How are you doing wardy? Did AF definitely get you?

Sounds very hopeful wardy, fingers crossed for you.

I'm feeling much perkier than yesterday. Massive boobs, so sore and veiny, but that happens most months. Feeling really tired and bloated, hungry, distracted. But much happier today.

Ovia says I can test in 3 days, which will be CD 24. Glad you like it olive! It's quite reassuring and also doesn't yell at you if you forget to put data in for a day or so. You can just catch up after.

When's AF due for you Birdie? X
